Slightly Mad Studios, who are the developers behind racing simulator Project CARS, have apologised to Wii U owners for the game’s cancellation. The news, which was announced today, revealed that the studio couldn’t get Project CARS running as they intended on Wii U hardware and so the decision was made the cancel the game.
“Despite much perseverance on the Wii U version of Project Cars, we will no longer be actively pursuing development on it as the quality does not meet our own high standards nor our intended vision for the title on this platform.”
“We eagerly look forward to any announcement of further hardware from Nintendo but right now Project Cars is simply too much for Wii U despite our very best efforts. Apologies to our Nintendo fans out there that have been waiting for further news on this but we have no desire to release a product that isn’t at the very least comparable with our highest-rated versions on other platforms. We optimistically look forward therefore to what the future may hold.”
– Project CARS creative director, Andy Tudor
Their best efforts must be no more the level of shit.
Because that is all I am reading
>>>They probably never had any Wii U version at all>>>
Yep just another kickstarter type false lure for wii u owners. If they wanted to release a game on wii u they could; I’ve seen racing games on wii which proved a good looking racer is possible, F1 2009 comes to mind. Things could have been scaled back, its just more obtuse excuses.
If you funded it, you can get a refund, but most people who helped fund the game would be making profit from the game anyways, so why bother with a refund?
Your opinion, but their work and attempts speak otherwise.
Because they falsely solicited money over something that doesn’t exists. It’s called “Fraud” fool and there’s a law against that.
Right… And in the end Project CARS exists yet you seem to doubt its existence. How is that fraud? The community of investors who funded the game get to decide what versions live and what versions get cancelled. It was how the PS3 and 360 were dropped, and the Wii U was also suppose to be dropped from the platform listing too, but Slight Mad Studios wasn’t willing to negotiate on that at the time.
I’m talking about the Wii U version moron. That port never happened and they solicited money to work on the PC and then port the same game to two other consoles. Get the fucking memo yet? They conned Nintendo fans and now they better start refunding ASAP.
Here’s the thing: You are ignoring and disregarding the MILLIONS upon MILLIONS of disappointed PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 owners, since you know, both userbases are several times larger than that of the Wii U’s. Those versions were dropped first, and players from both communities probably also invested money into this game too, but their version was dropped. Now, the same thing happened with the Wii U, and you are trying to justify that it is a fair call for Nintendo owners to complain in outrage even though it’s the exact same situation, and you are giving no consideration to other communities that had invested in this game?
“Get the fucking memo yet?”? I should be asking you this.
Why don’t you go over to the official forums and make a complaint about this and gather up support for your cause to hate on a development studio that you gave no money to and have no right to be outraged at, as you did not invest any money into this project whatsoever… I mean, if you did you could go get a refund and be over with it, right? You lose nothing, but gain nothing.
People have been saying that and I believe it too. They went from a working 60 FPS to only getting 5 FPS. Sounds iffy and funny because they “showed” a video of the WiiU version saying it was coming along amazingly, etc…
The game was never stated to being 60fps. The game wasn’t even 5fps either.
The game was supposedly running at 23fps, and they couldn’t boost it any further than that, even after several different optimization attempts.
Andy’s personal damage controller is here peeps.
Hey, hey. How often is it that people commit to mass hysteria and throw around stupid claims when it comes to Nintendo? Oh wait, it did happen with the Wii U. Back then people were willing to correct others for their ignorance and continue on with their day. Here, if you correct someone’s ignorance on a non-Nintendo related note it counts as damage control? Sheesh. You people got some terrible double standards.
…”Andy”?
Exactly. It’s just like Watchdogs, it probably never happened when they first lied about it.
What it sounded like to me, is they built an engine 2 years ago around PowerPC for the Xbox360/PS3 and the Wii U version. They since then canned that engine in favor of an x86 engine. But when they tried to stuff that code back on the Wii U they weren’t getting the best results. To get a performance that looks closer to what they were getting on the PC, they would have rewritten the lighting engine from scratch, cause that is very different in how it works (this is from reading people who develop on Unity). And they would have to down grade or redo some of the textures (talking to developer friends its better to redo textures in most cases, but being someone in digital arts there has been major advancements in recent years). This is because the game had a wide draw distance and high retextures. They might had to redo the particle effects for weather, but the Wii U is strong in the particle effects department.
It sounds like they tried to apply patchwork upon patchwork to an engine that wasn’t working that well and when they realized the corner they gotten themselves and how much time and money it would be to fix it, they gave up. Considering this is from the former developers of Need for Speed before Criterion took over, it doesn’t entirely surprise me. Its the only game I ever played on the (regular) Wii that had a game freezing bug, even had to pull to restart it.
For instance Need for Speed on the Wii U by Criterion took 6 months and rewriting the engine to work best with the system. They even got PC textures to work. It takes time, money and willingness…but you know.
Na wii don’t wanna hear all that. With there empty promise mouth. can hold my ####, for all that good shit they was speaking got us nintendo gamers more gassed then there there cars they sporting… with are MONEY!!!! #shenanigans
There’s no longer any debating it: Nintendo’s Wii U is an absolute disaster for Nintendo.
They are basically flipping of Nintendo fans because they already got your money.

XD
I really like that analogy.
nintendo fanboys can’t comprehend what is strong hardware lol
that sounds interesting. please, explain in your own words what a strong hardware is
But, unlike those who bought an XBOX One, at least they can comprehend the meaning of a scam.
o come on, from 23 fps to 30fps why would they have much truble?
the guys from shinen got their game running at only 15fos at first and later with optimizations and some tricks like occlusion culling they got the game running at stable 60fps
just imagine how good the game could look at 30fps

and thats not the obly exampel of what wii u can do
I’d like to see the amount of individuals who funded the project who were hoping to play it on Wii U and did not play it on any other system. If anyone on this site falls into that category, give a shout. Doing some probing – for science.
I have long since moved my interest to 90s Arcade racer and Fast Racing Neo (which the latter looks as good as PCars graphics in a different way).
I’d rather see them giving back the money to the people who backed the project and an apoligize for the xbone version, that version is so bad.
There was always that option available. Too few people even took up on it though, especially because those who fund the game get profit from the game’s sales.
Well, that’s too bad.
“Despite much perseverance ” lol
Fuckin’ right! That’s what I’m talkin bout homeboy! Apologies accepted you flip floppin mutha fuckas.
Step yo game up playa.
Bout time you realize how ignent yer statement was.
Shiiiiiiiyyyiiiittt
Facts.
“..but we have no desire to release a product that isn’t at the very least comparable with our highest-rated versions on other platforms.” ARE YOU RETARDED?? That is the typical third party shit with their “graphics are what make a game comparable” shit. If game developers had followed that useless philosophy then the original wii would have been a failure. Grow up some fucking balls say the truth, what you really think:
“graphics are what matter, and we preffer a game with graphics than with an additional screen with motion controls, because graphics and power are what make a game comparable, and in addition, doing a game with wii u graphics would had been a failure because only stupid nintendo gamers, who are a small fraction of the market, would have paid for it.”
You are just another developer that lacks the soul of a true gamer.
Aw @re th3 w1ddl@ b@bb1es ups3t t1h@t d@ w11 flu iz g@rb1dg3 lmfao xD
Is it just me or, this game was based on Kickstarter? Because if it was… there has to be a way to sue those mother fuckers scammers.
Crowd funded not kickstarted
Same shit. A donation pool is what both of those are but if there is something of a service or product to be returned in exchange for donation, they better make do to their word. Otherwise, it’s fraud and yeah, lawsuits and refund demands will happen and be justified.
1) Not the same
2) You INVEST money, and actually receive a payout from it (plus access to early PC builds)
3) You had the ability to get your money back, but you forfeit the above (mind you, the game was a success, and made a lot of money, so who in their right mind would do that?)
4) This would be closer to investment rather than service, which can be a lot riskier.
5) The reason why Kickstarter projects don’t offer a monetary return is because the far majority of the US population cannot be an investor by US law (there is an actual reason behind this). Which is why they receive goods in return for their money.
6) Kickstarter is based in the US, which makes it applicable to US laws; Slightly Mad Studios and WMD is based in Britain, where investment laws likely differ.
Still a retard to grasp the simple explanation of what “fraud” means. I get it. I’ll try to explain it again slowly without sounding like I’m hammering your clogged brain in even though I would love to do that.
SOLICITING MONEY FOR A PRODUCT/SERVICE THAT ISNT REDEEMED NOR EXISTED IS “FRAUD”!
Get it now or do you want to do away your wasted mind with a steamroller on top of it?
1) The product DOES exists
2) The investors, the ones that chose to fund the game, decide what platforms the games are to be developed for and whether or not to cut funding for one platform or not.
3) It only becomes fraud when you are asking for money without giving a return. The ones who invested in the game got a return (monetary compensation for the next 3 years AND a copy of the final product).
4) Butt hurt much?
5) Hate Nintendo too. They stole money from consumers after promising many things that they couldn’t keep… At least in the situation with Slightly Mad Studios, you can get your money back from your investment, but if you get money back from it, there is little reason to do so.
There is no liability if you always have the option to opt out. If you helped fund the game and what a refund, then go ahead and call/email their support.
What.A.Scam
Dear Slighty Mad (Twats),
Give everyone who had backed your project who were Nintendo users their money back for the damage you’ve caused or else face lawsuits up the ass from everyone of them.
Love, Every gamer who’s tired of this shit.
Dear Christopher,
They offered to give anyone a refund for months, well before the game was even released and well before news of the Wii U version troubles emerged. If you want a refund, then you go request it and get your money back on the premises of the Wii U version, but even then there probably aren’t many who did so anyways.
~Avid Debater
PS: They caused no damage to Wii U owners, so suing successfully is unlikely
Let them sue. They’ll just waste a ton of money on legal fees and get nothing in return. lol
Let them get sued and end up with less than nothing for working on lying more than programming a empty promises game.
They are such assholes…
I love it!
So you support the use of crowdfunding to steal money from gamers without delivering the promised product to that platform?
Yup! Because that’s exactly what Nintendo did with that peice of shit Wii U.
https://youtu.be/RMQfrXC6XEM?t=3m4s
Excuse me?
Sir, I’m going to ask for you to corporate with me and tone down the attitude.
>>>Disgusting>>>
Benchord.
I think that what Nintendo did with their “piece of shit Wii U” was give us some pretty damn solid games such as Smash Bros, Mario Kart 8, Bayonetta 2, Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze and Super Mario 3D World just to name a few. I think what Slightly Mad Studios just did was promise a Wii U version even though it was apparently “always a maybe” after claiming it was “more than capable” of handling the game, take money from anyone wanting to see this on Wii U, cancel Wii U version of the game then not offer any sort of refund to Wii U supporters. The difference is Nintendo has already put out great games for Wii U. What Slightly Mad Studios did was basically fraud.
Please, the Wii u is a giant piece of dogshit. No metroid, no kirby, no animal crossing, no fire emblem, no paper Mario, no warioware , etc… Oh, and before you go “Bu-but ‘game and wario’, kirby rainbow whatever, shin mega I tensie x fire emblem” I’m talking about REAL entries into those franchises. The Wii u barely supported any Nintendo franchises that weren’t Mario or zelda. Occasionalones like pikmin 3 (best game on Wii u), wooly world and starfox…but not much,
i also consider the ps4 a dogshit:
sony promises 1080p 60fps that is not to be found in most games includiong own ones like killzone and they even lie to people just for hype and secure sales
they lie on E3 events about the graphics like infamous and we get a downgrade that we are not told about and have to find out ourselves when buying the actual game
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxjRbiqrVlY
sony lied about ps3 capabilities faking in the E3 as like the game was running on ps3 when was not and later they dont give apologises, now the game never came to ps3 and will come on ps4
Sony is full of shit
Do consider that the Wii U doesn’t have adequate online; the account system is still a mess; the eShop is still not a viable platform for most developers (who aren’t indie– maybe this point is out of date); they dropped support for TVii and many of its other ‘hyped up’ apps; and the lack of games that make use of the gamepad in a good manner is also lacking too, and is largely apparently on Nintendo’s part.
It’s not a piece of shit, but defending that it’s good is really sad, especially in comparison to its competitors that clearly offer a superior service in these regards. Games-wise, the Wii U has a decent number of good games, but console-wise it really isn’t that good of a system…. Nintendo made and broke a lot of promises with it.
Also, please stop being silly like many other posts here. They have offered refunds for a LONG time, well before news of the Wii U version troubles hit the Internet.
Nintendo BUILT the wiiu, and didn’t give us a damn game for over a year and a half, then gave us Windwaker as their “practice run” using HD.
Platinum, EA and Ubisoft launched some great games, Nintendo treated us all like Slightly Mad, just like he said.
checkmate!
Oh, burnnnn… That comment kinda smarts! Lol
Except they got what they paid for. In this case, people end up with nothing so it’s different.
They were able to get funding for their game; they were able to make the game; and the game became a financial success.
They definitely got what was coming to them!
Now they end up with nothing and less than that thanks to lying and cheating out of their money and desperation for a good third party game.
Apologized* not what the retard who published this article wrote. Round of applause for MyNintendonNews.
>>>I can’t even>>>
The mouth on this guy…
I’m from the UK. Sorry!
>>>*Sorry, not sorry!>>>
Maybe I got too aggressive there…
For the record, you misspelled the name of the website in your initial comment…
So you shouldn’t have been so aggressive about spelling without checking your own comment, it makes you look like an asshole.
youre an asshole
Thank you! That’s what I was going for :)
😘
😍
You’re okay in my book, buddy.
🚽🚽💉💊🔑💣🔫🚬🔧🔩🔬👙👓⛄️
Thank you :)
Maybe the right reply would have been: “sorry for my ignorance for not considering that apologise is the correct way to spell it in the first place and we in USA deform it” :-)
Sorry…jeeez. I take it back and would just like everyone to get along
Apologise accepted :-)
Some guys in US (not all of them) believe they invented the language of Shakespeare aka English language. The worse thing is when you go to US and some people ask you if the people in England do speak in English (true story).
You might not want typos in your asshole typo-finger-pointing comments, FYI.
MORON ALERT! MORON ALERT!
“We have been completely disingenuous throughout the development of the Wii U version, but please don’t let that deter you from buying any of our future products”.
Too late.
Lol XD
I’m glad I have a vita to play need for speed
Yeah, I’m glad I have Need for Speed on Wii U.
Which is a gorgeous game, I might add!
BRING OUT THE SALT SHAKERS LMAO!!!!!!!
I really don’t want to be sour about this, but for someone that has been looking forward to buying this on the U since announcement, this is very disappointing. Its gonna hurt to buy this on any other console, not even sure if its worth the pain….
Slightly Mad Studios? Stupid name.
I really don’t want to be sour about this, but for someone that has been looking forward to getting this on the U since its announcement, this is very disappointing. Its going to hurt to get this on any other console, and to be honest I’m not really sure its worth the pain….
Yeah. Kinda how I feel about Metroid. First console (WiiU) to not get one. Kinda feel jaded.
N64?
Ok, I waited a while for someone to call me out on this. So first, pat yourself on the back, yes, the 64 did not get a Metroid release…
It must have skipped my mind due to the flood of amazing games released gor adult gamers.
– Armorines, (even had coop, basically starship troopers)
– Oot, MM
– Rogue Squadron
– PERFECT DARK HELL YEAH
– Goldeneye
– Battletanks
The list goes on, games for adults /teens were abundant and those were some of my best gaming years. If Metroid had to skip a console, that would be the one, because we were so busy having the time of our lives to notice. :)
You forgot Battlezone: Rise of the Black Dogs. I’d love to get a remake of that game that is also an expansion of the original.
>>>N64 and 3DS begs to differ>>>
Slightly Mad Studios should get sued for false promising, and scam.
They aré like Oracle. Hahaha
A real apology would be refunding the money to any of their supporters who were getting the Wii U version. But, instead, they’re just keeping the money and probably using it for their sequel that they really shouldn’t even be crowdfunding for yet considering the versions that have managed to come out still have some problems. Devs who can’t put out three versions and can’t fix their already existing versions should be at least fixing the existing versions. Not going “give us more money for a sequel!”.
people supported them as a whole not “nintendo fans”.
no one said only nintendo fans supported the game. Go to play with your puppets.
And don’t you feel silly for writing that block of text after finding out that they’ve offered refunds for a long time!
Considering how Project CARS took 4-5 years to be developed, it isn’t too out-of-place for them to begin developing the sequel. Usually, that’s how it goes anyways. Finish one project and then start on the next. Have some members of the team begin working on the next project, and set aside another portion of the team to continue working and supporting their current release.
Well good luck having ANY support from Nintendo fans in the future. Nintendo fans, unlike Sony and Microsoft fans don’t forget being stabbed in the back.
As far as I’m concerned, go get your money back, Wii U owners. And if they won’t give you your money, call your credit card company.
This is why Nintendo does not care about what 3rd party devs say or think about them become most dev now are simply crooks
I hope slightly mad studios dies a fast but painful death.
>>>I like that sentence>>>
Should have thought about power back when Project Café was in R&D.
Hopefully the NX ain’t just slight more powerful than the weak U. If it is, they can change it right now while it’s in R&D. But Nintendo is stupid so…
you dont even need to apologize, it’s nintendo that should be apologizing for releasing a weak system. the wii u disc is so horrible and you games could just break randomly even when there barely a single mark scratch on it.
holy fuck, another comment. if the game it is because you have the intention of breaking it on purpose. My discs do not have any single mark or scratch.
Next time, speak for yourself. Ok? :)
Some of mine have slight scratches (totally my bad) and work fine…not sure what he’s talking about.
he sounds totally bias against Nintendo, looks like he is salty against them or he must be trying to troll and failing, so i am sure he’s talking nonsense.
it all depends of how you manipulate the discs. for fucks sake, even my gamecube disc are totally fine!!!
I cant believe ppl in here are comparing what Slightly mad just did to buying a wii u. Theres at least 10 amazing 1st party games on the wii u. More on the way. They did their best to fill the void when the 3rd parties abandoned them. It takes years to develope a game, and we are just starting to see the fruits of their labor with games like Smash and Splatoon, while Starfox and Zelda are on the way… How fucking dare you suggest that buying a Wii U is as much a letdown as having your money straight stolen from these souless pieces of shit? At least Nintendo is trying to please those who bought the wii u. Iwata may he rest in peace even said that was their top priority, above NX development, above mobile. Dont you dare suggest the Wii U is that much of a letdown. I’ve owned it since launch and I only love it more with time. Ill never regret my purchase! Fuuuck da haters boi!
I….agree
I have to say that regardless of fans reaction, my interest for that game, and the fact it could not be released on wii U for good or bad reason. They should refund the money they took from the ones who paid for the wii U version surely (if applicable of course). I don’t know how it has been setup but I would guess that people who gave them money specified which version they gave their money for.
I have to say it’s limit a robbery or a con. But more importantly it will damage the model/future of crowded funding for video game. I really hope they real did intent to developed game for the wii U (we will never know).
If you funded, you always have the option of getting a refund. This has been the case for a long time.
well I guess lot of people will/should ask for a refund (never done and maybe never will put any money on those kind of project).
Not many people requested a refund when the news broke back a few months ago though. While it would be nice to think that, there probably wouldn’t be a drastic number of people requesting a refund.
if it was me I would ask for a refund. But he kind of show you that kind of company maybe know what they doing because the bet on people who can’t be bother to ask for a refund. Anyway that does not inspire me to fund a project about a multi-plateform game.
Wow trolls really enjoyed posting here don’t they?
What they don’t realize is Slightly Mad is the one who wronged Nintendo gamers just like Ubisoft. Slightly Mad knows what the Wii U can handle even before they even started developing for the PS4 or XBO.
I don’t care for their game or their company anymore. I doubt they will even release a game on the next Nintendo console, may it be the NX or not, they’re just saying that as damage control.
If we talk in principles, then yes. Don’t give false hype for something. Slightly Mad Studios had done this; however, remarks of stealing money, and that the game was Wii U and PC only isn’t applicable (the last one is a misconception developed by uninformed “fans”).
In the end though, your comment does come off as being ignorant as essentially every company wrong Wii U owners, including Nintendo. They lied about the system; they marketed it towards ‘hardcore’ gamers and then did a 180 degree turn around when the Wii U wasn’t selling (ie they abandoned those gamers). Also, it has been nearly 3 years now and Nintendo still doesn’t have a proper account system (no web access)….
If you’ve ever tried making something, then you would understand that changes happen when you are building it. Literally, if you even bothered to check up on what was happening with this game, you would have known all about this. They had the game running fine up until the PS4 and XB1 became supported platforms; then they updated internal models and whatnot and before long the Wii U version became heavily outpaced. This comes back to my first two sentences. They shouldn’t have continued hyping up the game at this point, but on the other hand they didn’t speak about this version for months; however, in principle, they should have dropped the Wii U version sooner rather than later.
Except Ubi launched a ton of great games on the WiiU while Nintendo was fucking us over with another game drought (after promising not to.)
Ubi: Blacklist is epic, I loved ZombiU and still play it, Child of Light is refreshing, AC4 Is hellava fun (although I admit AC3…got stale quickly)
People need to give Ubi a break.
I wouldnt consider five games asas a ton.
Zombi U was a 360 game, it looked like a 360 game and the performance was pretty ropey.
Blacklist also had issues, not as much as PS3 and 360 but again, another 360 game + Vsync, no local Co op, broken online multiplayer and on disc DLC.
As for Assassin’s Creed, again a 360 game, with worse performance and I think there’s even DLC missing.
I didn’t buy Child of Light as I pretty much gave up.on Ubisoft by then. By far away their best release was Rayman Legends which was (Surprise, Surprise) built from the ground up for Wii U. Everything else had been pretty mediocre in all honestly and it’s understandable why people aren’t buying their larfely lacklustre releases for the Wii U.
Ashame you wouldn’t give 5 games “a ton” because it’s a hellava lot more games I’ve bought on the wiiu than Nintendo gave me.
Think first. Type after.
Five is not a ton, and you could go through lots of Nintendo games which trump that small mediocre list of games you’ve listed there.
You should heed your own advice and stop being so silly.
Ok. 2000 US pounds is a “Ton”.
Are we really going to play semantics? Nintendo let the WiiU rot for years. That’s all there is to it, while 3rd parties hit the ground running, then left when they saw WiiU wasn’t getting supported enough by it’s own creator.
Nintendo is as guilty as any 3rd party for not bringing the software, or gimping the shit out of it when they eventually released some long after launch.
Well, then I hope they release both Project Cars 1 and 2 on NX.
Best regards, Nintendrones friends.

“Despite much perseverance on the Wii U version of Project Cars, we will no longer be actively pursuing development on it as the quality does not meet our own high standards nor our intended vision for the title on this platform.”
Then…why’d you make Wii U a goal? Surely, your mouths wouldn’t write a check your ass couldn’t cash. Right? When Wii U was an option, you knew what you were getting in to. As professionals, you studied Wii U’s hardware, or @ the very least locked your intentions in to create a game on something (Wii U) that allows the creation of games. Right? Yet, I’m left asking why a Wii U vedsion was “planned”.
“Apologies to our Nintendo fans out there that have been waiting for further news on this but we have no desire to release a product that isn’t at the very least comparable with our highest-rated versions on other platforms.”
Ah, that’s why: you really just sped past your initial goals (including PS360), knowingly leaving them in the dust. Maybe it was Bandai Namco @ the wheel? Or did you neglect to research the raw specs in PS4/X1 & assume they’d be on par w/ Wii U? & of course, PC always has the specs edge over consoles, so that wasn’t an influence; that kinda “power” stays on PC for several console gens.
I know Racing Sims are graphically demanding, but Wii U would’ve been possible if your feet weren’t made of lead. The multiplatting plague & impatience strikes again (couldn’t even polish & omptimize what you ended up w/). If Sony weren’t the publisher of the Gran Turismo franchise, I guess the 1st one would’ve been on N64 instead of the original PlayStation. Carts an issue? How about Gran Turismo on GameCube & Xbox because PS2 was graphically inferior. I guess Nintendo should’ve pulled a Bandai Namco & published pCARS, then Wii U & Nintendo fans would finally have a Racing Sim, & 1 to be proud of as promised. Of course, Nintendo could make their own, but that’s just not how they roll.
Et tu, SMS? You, as a 3rd party/indie said you’d provide an example of the Racing Sim genre for Nintendo’s subculture, & on Wii U. But it seems you either didn’t do your hardware homework, got lead feet, or Bandai Namco carjacked your ride. Regardless, your PR is flawed (as are the current industry practices). My interest in Racing Sims has run out of gas (does wanting a new Daytona USA count?); ‘least ’til someone else refuels it.
But I would rather have a new Ridge Racer (Wii U). Or a Wii U port of the latest Mario Kart Arcade game. Et tu, Bandai Namco?
People say that they are liars. Sure, they thought it was going to work on the Wii U. They said that they are going to come out with a Wii U version…. but that’s a prediction. I bet once they were feature complete, they tried to slap it on the Wii U again. They noticed that the framerate and resolution was horrid so they tried to trim stuff off elsewhere. They trimmed so much off that the game was probably a much lesser version than before.
It’s unfortunate that their prediction turned out wrong. But I bet no one could get the game running well on the Wii U in it’s current state.
lol, even a year before now they said that the game was running fine an all and even said that the game was running at 23fps, so how much can it take to make it run at 30fps when a 5 people company liek shinen got their game running at just 15fps at first and later with optimizations the game is running at stable 60fps?
So you mean to tell me that they cannot get the game run at 30fps when a tiny studio of just 5 people got their game fast racing neo run at stable 60fps?, just imagine this game at 30fps with slower peace and clearly should be as good as project cars
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9XJxqrYllo4
The game never existed, clearly they just made promises to get the money for other purposes
They better start fucking refunding every last nickel and dime they lied and cheated out of the fans wanting this GARBAGE racing game (yes it’s garbage and underwhelming as proven and said by many)
Otherwise, lawsuits will start flaring up like rising hell.
Sometimes it’s painful reading uninformed responses…
Where are the lawsuits exactly? Where is the outrage on their official forums from Wii U owners who funded the game? But, don’t listen to this random speech from an Internet user you will ignore with all your might. Go stir up trouble yourself instead of claiming it will happen. Why not go ahead and try and sue them if you care so much?
Give it a day.
After the lies & false promises, you better apologize.
I’m wondering how they think waiting for the NX is a good idea?
A few things to think about here:
SMS know nothing about the NX or when it’s going to be released. PCars 2 will probably be well into development by then.
I doubt that interest in PCars on a Nintemdo platform will be very high anyway after the way SMS have handled this debacle.
